You have the wrong board,when ordering the new board you need the model and serial numbers.you need to put in your model number and then add the first two digits off of serial number to get the correct board so it will take your code,say the first two digits are 12 then you need to see what board is for MFI2568AES12 YOU PROBABLY HAVE BOARD PART WP12920710 BUT FOR YOUR MODEL AND SERIAL YOU NEED PART WPW10310240 and then you'll be able to enter your code
SOURCE: Frig section not cooling and at time appears to stop but freezer is ok
There is one compressor, condenser and evaporator in all refrigerators. The part that makes the cold inside the unit is the evaporator. It's in the freezer, behind a barrier on the back wall. It's a "coil" with many small fins. There is a fan that blows air over the evaporator which makes the air cold. This air comes from the freezer and stays in the freezer. The cold food section (the refrigerator) has a control that opens a hole for air to pass from the freezer to the fridge. This being said...you can rule out the "temperature control" for the fridge.
The sound you hear could be the compressor relay, the evaporator fan or maybe something else. It could be bad, it could be not too bad. (Like a fan blade a bit unbalanced with dust)
OK,,, back to the evaporator. There is a little heater next to the coil that turns on every 8 hours or so to defrost the coil. That's called the "defrost cycle". Makes sense, no? If the defrost timer (common problem) or defrost control board (common problem) go bad, your evaporator coil freezes up, and that's not good for anything in your refrigerator. But it can often keep the freezer section cold. You can easily disassemble the evaporator cover in the back of the freezer and take a look. If it looks like a block of ice, you probably have a defrost issue. An even, thin coat of frost is OK, but lots of ice is a no no.
SOURCE: Ice maker removal
first of all remove the ice bucket. then you will see a wiring cover on teh left hand wall just below teh icemaket. there is a rectangular hole in this cover. using a small precision scredriver carefullly insert into this hole and push up or and down to release a hidden clip. the trick is to pull on the wiring cover while you try to maneuver the clip. first time you do it it can be very frustrating but keep working at it and you will get it.
alternately you could just leave the Icemaker in place and use a hairdryer to melt the jammed ie out of the way. good luck peyton

On most the motherboard will reset itself once unplugged. I believe you need to test the low voltage power supply transformer. This by far will not be a one answer solution so if you could follow through the service manual and technical notes with me I will be glad to assist you. Any time a board is disconnected on your model the motherboard should reset back to factory settings once disconnected from a power supply. Hope you have not discarded the old boards and you can put them back in and see if something is different. Let me know later what you decide to do. For now I will leave these=> Service Manual and=> Technical Information I will return later to see if you respond. Please rate my solution after I have helped you resolve the problem and communicate with me. I am offering my help to you free.
